...for $40! Can anyone tell me if this is a good figure and if this is a good price?

That is a total steal for a MISB Lio Convoy as long as we are talking about the non flash voyager version

why whats wrong with the flash version?.... im looking to buy a lio convoy, but all i can find is the flash version.

It has a more translucent plastic with metallic specks in it.

The white version is much better.

Yeah that's pretty good considering I had to pay $41 US for mine, not in box as that's all there was at the time! (Now I might sell it!)

that's a great STEAL there as long as it's the Red/White original figure, not the Flash version. take it from a guy who patronizes this figure. good figure, very displayable though not quite playable.

:MAX:

Wow you are lucky. Like the others said, this isn't the Flash version you got the real deal. I want Lio Convoy sooooo badly as well as a lot other BWII or BW Neo figures but one thing stands in my way: money.

I really like Lio Convoy. It is too bad the lion mode is not more poseable. His right arm is also very limited because of the lion head. The red and white color scheme is by far the best.

yeah, a definite homage to G1 prime - even the head looks like one.

Nothing wrong with the Flash version at all, I have it as well. $40 is still a great price for the flash version, but $40 for an original Lio is an amazing price.

That's a good price. I was lucky enough to stumble on one a while back for only $24 + shipping! I couldn't believe only one person had bid on it, and my first bid lasted until the end of the auction, especially since it was the original white and red version!!

Sometimes you get e-bay; sometimes e-bay gets you, ya know?

Here be the auction:

And I say take him out. This will bever be a huge investment figure (already 5+ years old and only $40). Plus bot mode is awesome!

Are you serious? It took the G1 era over two decades to reach a pinnacle of resale value for MISB.

Maybe so. It is a matter of opinion, I suppose. I fully support opening the figures and enjoying them as they were meant to be enjoyed.

aye, me too. besides, Takara's packaging art leaves something to be desired LOL. no artistry in there, unlike G1 boxes. i say take him out and play with him.
